Hi Iluvhummingbirds,

Problem should be the driver door lock actuator. It is stuck in the closed position resulting in you not being able to unlock it.

When the passenger door is unlocked, the driver door lock signal would signal to the control unit that the door should be loced thus it locks itself again.

You need to open up the driver door panel to get to the door lock actuator and replace it, not easy if the door cannot be opened.

This could also be the problem why the alarm system malfunctioned.
